Product information
If you’ve got a bit of a cheese fetish, you can’t beat this
wine that shares its name with the famous formaggio. The Pecorino grape has been growing in Abruzzo for millennia – and the lucky sheep (‘pecora’ in Italian) in the area used to nibble on the grapes, hence the name.

Tasting Notes
There’s nothing cheesy about this crisp, fresh white with
balanced acidity and aromas of pear and sage.
History
The Casimirri family have lovingly tended their 49 acres of vines
and olive groves in the Abruzzo region for more than half a century. The grapes are hand tended and harvested by local villagers in the cooler hours of the day, then spirited off to the winery as quickly as possible to achieve the distinctive fresh taste for which the Casimirris' wines are held in such high regard in the region.

tasted of sherry
This had oxidised, tasting of sherry immediately upon opening so was undrinkable.

Wine of high quality
Really high quality of wine and love the taste of pear. The best part is that I can have only one or two glasses each day for weeks without feeling the pressure to finish it quickly! The taste was well maintained for 4 weeks before I actually finished it. Such a great deal and already recommended to my friends.
